# Pigalle

Alternative rockParis, France2008

Pigalle is the alternative rock band founded in Paris in 1982 by François Hadji-Lazaro, a pioneer of neo-realist chanson played on unexpected instruments: hurdy-gurdy, mandolin, banjo, bagpipes. Known for « Dans la salle du bar-tabac de la rue des Martyrs », it released its first albums on Boucherie Productions, played the Olympia in 1992 and toured as far as Japan.

After splitting in 1998, the band had reunited for a tour in 2008, ahead of the albums Des espoirs (2010), T’inquiète… (2014) and Ballade en mélancolie (2018).

It played Les Mouillotins in 2008, at the 7th edition.
